Answer of the New Insane Hospital Board to
the Proposition of Evansville Citizens.

The commissioners of the new insane hos
pitfalls yesterday heard the committee which
came up from Evansville to urge the completion

Senator Rahm and County Commissioner Wun-
derlich as spokesman assured the board that the
business men of Evansville were ready to guar

hospital on the basis OF indebtedness-that
Is to say, wait and throw themselves on the
generosity of the next Legislature for their pay.
Merchants of Cincinnati. Chicago and ST. Louis
have agreed to furnish goods on these terms.
The consideration of claims and estimates was
then entered upon there being large number
Of small claims before the board mostly Of long
standing. Allowances were made to the extent
of "a, 900, when the board stranded on the terra
sofia claim, and it's complications held them for
two three hours. This claim was held by
John j. Cooper, assignee of the Terra Gotta
Company. but portion of it was demanded by
Mr.. Garfield, who did the terra Gotta work, on
the ground that the company owed him for part
OF the work. The board under the provisions OF
the statute. undertakes to see that laborers and
material mon receive their pay from contractors.
and con sequently part of them favored the pay
ment of Mr.. Garfield, while others favored pay
ing Mr.. Cooper on the ground of constructive
assignment TO him of Canfields claim. The
matter was finally adjusted between the claim
ants by private agreement. and the entire final
estimate of So 438. 81 paid to Mr.. Cooper.

The Logansport hospital was then formally
accepted from the contractors as to construc-
ton. and Doctor Rogers was appointed superin-
tendert of the institution.
Late in the evening the Evansville ttee
returned and insisted answer from the

completion of the same it was necessary to walk
by faith. not by sight" The speaker dwelt
happily and at some length how the work
had been hopefully carried forward against all
discouragsments, resulting finally in success
He spoke of the work that is now to De done In

A CROP THAT THE DROUGHT HELPED.
The Ice Dealers Sell Out Their Supply at
Better Prices than Ever Before.

While the ice product was not very encour-
aging last winter on account of the shortness of
the season, the wholesale dealers are satisfied
with the summers trade. 1.-The demand has
been so great" said Sterling Holt, last night,
''that find it impossible to fill all orders.
Within the past week we have had to discon-
tinue supplying any but regular
customers. Two three Wholesale
men in Chicago ran short and
for a time we supplied them, but that demand
ran our houses so low that refused to meet
it. If the ice was to be had we could sell it all.
Thus far about $500 cars of ice have been
shipped from this point. mostly South. and if
our own supply had been sufficient, 500 more
cars could have been sent out. The business
this wear has been better than that of any sea-
son since 1882. We have got better prices and
filled more orders"
s.What has been the advance in the Wholesale
price this yearT was asked.
about twenty-five per cent over that OF last
season. The demand from the South was in
creased by the shortness of the product there.
For two three years back a good many thou
sand tons cut as far down as Tennessee.
but on.account of the shortness OF last winter
no ice produced South of the Ohio. The
cold days came and went quickly and left no
marketable ice.
What is the storage capacity for ice in In
dianapolisl"
estimate it at 80, 900 TONS and the houses were
file during the past winter but the supply is
running very low. Usually we carry over about
10000 tons but this year we will not have more
than 5000 tons left. A few of our wholesale
dealers are already out of ice They are buying
customers During the hot days in
July and August the calls upon the
dealers Were extraordinarily heavy
Some days as high thrtyse cars off ice
were shipped from here South and as the total
supply fell about 10 600 short of that OF last
year, you can see how we obtained better prices.
